Recipe Summary Healthy After-School Granola Bars

I'll usually make a huge batch of these and freeze them, then grab one for a healthy snack.

Ingredients | Healthy Fruit Crumble Bars

2 ½ cups oats

1 ½ cups quinoa

1 cup slivered almonds

⅓ cup chia seeds

1 cup crunchy peanut butter

½ cup honey

¼ cup coconut oil, warmed

½ cup flaxseed meal

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups dark chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread oats, quinoa, almonds, and chia seeds on a baking sheet.

Toast in the preheated oven, stirring halfway through, until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Mix peanut butter, honey, and coconut oil together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Mix in oat mixture, flaxseed meal, and salt until well combined. Press granola mixture into a 12x18-inch baking pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until bars set, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake until chocolate is just melted, about 5 minutes. Spread melted chocolate evenly over bars with a rubber spatula.

Place in the freezer until chocolate is firm, about 20 minutes; cut into bars.

Toasted flax seeds can be substituted for the flax seed meal.

A 9x13-inch baking pan can be used instead of the 12x18-inch pan if thicker bars are desired.
